    It’ll require us to create an actual AI first, but yeah when that day comes shit’s gonna get real wild real fast.

    And no, the glorified spellchecker-on-steroids we’re all calling AI but isn’t actual intelligence isn’t gonna cut it. Fun toy though.

      It’s artificial as in fake, not man-made and it’s been that way since the 70’s. It’s only the pop-sci definition that’s inaccurate. AI has always been about faking decision making whether it is an adversarial AI in a video game or a chat bot. You can hate the overhyped wallstreet buzz around LLMs, but this semantic argument crap has just been annoying.

        ‘Artificial’ isn’t the part of it that’s in question, lol. And computing has been around since way before the 70s.

        That isn’t intelligence.

        adversarial AI in a video game or a chat bot

        are examples of A but not I.

        this semantic argument crap has just been annoying.

        Agreed. Words have meanings, and while we fuck it up a lot by not understanding the meaning or by some marketing department deliberately using the wrong words to sell something to people who don’t know any better, none of that means the words don’t have meanings.

        Unless we’re going with the whole “we’ve used it incorrectly long enough that that’s what it means now cuz language evooooolves!” shit, and honestly, maybe we have crossed that line, but that shit’s above my paygrade.

            Pick your poison., ofc barring the entries that don’t fit the context of what we’re talking about, like ‘military intelligence’ which is ultimately just data.

            If you want it in my own words, I’d say it’s how information is handled, and includes the entire sequence of receiving information, evaluating that information, making a decision based on that evaluation, and then assessing the results of that decision.

            There’s more to it than just input -> output, even if it’s a really complex input or output.

            How 'bout you?

            Outlook’s integration of said concept just made me copy and paste a sentence from notepad because it repeatedly tried to correct a phrase and wouldn’t fucking stop doing it.

            Because who the fuck would ever type the letters “my” and then follow it with a space?

      Change happens very slowly then all at once - unknown, to me. I didn’t want to go down that rabbit hole, it’s 0330
